Questioning the Bible

Submitted by Stephen Winters

Over the years I have noticed that many people are very explosive (get very angry very quickly) over anyone questioning that Bible as being "the Word God". I've wondered, why do they get angry. If the Bible was indeed true, then why would they get angry over it. People generally get angry when they are covering up a lie and it is about to be exposed. Why would anyone get angry over something that is supposedly true?

In addition, whenever I've even insinuated that I was questioning the Bible, I've experienced religious leaders trying to "set me straight".

Why would anyone get angry over someone questioning the Bible, when the Bible says (Galatians 5:20) that "Outbursts of anger" are one of the deeds of the flesh.
